Let me make it clear, I have ZERO political affiliation. Even the few friends I have from Pakistan are pretty much PTI supporters with the odd PMLN fanatics.
These elections like all the elections before mean nothing to me. I have no stake nor do I have a say whatsoever on how a country that I am not a resident of should be run.
What I can simply do is provide a neutral pov and I must say, the PTI’s ethos of violence, hoolaganism and abusive slogans is probably in line with what IK has tried to portray India lead by the RSS. This is unacceptable and I would be appalled to think these are the so called residents of Riasat-e-Medina. It is shocking to think that IK wants to liken his followers to be like the Revolutionised barbarics of Arabia who became the leaders of the world.
If you want to be the best, and better than those before you, then there is no excuse for the following:
-constantly harrasing residents, people residing in and near Avonsfield House with slogans, road blocking and provoking fights and brawls!
-Abusing NS and his enterouge when he is out on his walks in public during his private time/space
-Abusing PMLN workers in public spaces when they are out with their families.
-Assaulting/harrasing grandchildren of NS. Protesting at their private functions such as weddings
-violent, anger fuelled protests all over Pakistan and clearly in the UK
-Senior PTI politicians laughing/mocking the physical assault on journalists. Not condemning the behaviour!
The list can go on and on. This isn’t a ‘*** for tat’ situation. Many of these incidents are unprovoked and are being applauded by PTI supporters.
What kind of revolution will be gained with this ethos of violence? How are the PTI and their supporters any better than the governments before them? This violence will only lead to more street power and brutality, and soon you will have no choice but to get the Army involved to take control!
